HIGH street video games retailer Game Digital saw its shares slip 0.5 per cent during its first day of trading yesterday.

Game, which listed on the London Stock Exchange’s premium segment, saw its shares close just under its 200p offer price at 198p.

The group itself had initially banked on a £400m initial price offering with estimates of between 200p per share and 212p per share for the initial pricing. However, on Friday the firm announced it had opted for the lower end of that range.
